clear out turn signals, tint windows, shave body bouldings and door handles. if u dont have a 97, you could buy the underbody pieces from the 98 so that they are body color because i dont think paint works well on that material. drop with rimz and an exhaust. Shave all emblems except the acura sign on the back trunk lid. and if you dont have a spoiler; get one. i think this car is fuggly without one tahts why i wouldn't buy my CL unless it had a spoiler on it (we bought it new October 30th, 1996 drove off the lot 9:33PM, first 3.0CL sold at that dealership its a 97.)

Like 97AcuraCL said, buy the clear turn signals. That's a must and should be first. Cheap and easy, but makes a HUGE difference..... Check with Tim at www.autocarparts.com . I'm pretty sure he has them.....

Buy a huge exhuast with a 6" tip and lots of stickers...that says stuff in Japanese and Chinese..and rims...definite must...but it must be powder coated...or spray painted...whichever one is in your budget...and matching mudflaps...not guards...flaps..like the rally racers....and then you need to get body colored vinyl tape and cover up your windshield and your side windows...don't forget the aluminum spoiler...two decks please!!! Almost forgot the chrome trim on the fenderwell...that'll look sik!!!

Thanksm for all the ideas, I had already planned on dropping it with the comptech lowering springs. And rims are on the way after winter is over. I'm not sure about shaving the door handles, but maybe. Oh yeah and the 6 inch exhaust, no way. I was thinking about getting the WW type R air dam. Anyone know how much it runs, painted?
